Jayalalitha in Jail: Who gets Amma’s food-taster job?

The former chief minister of Tamil Nadu continues to remain in jail, with her bail plea at the Supreme Court to be heard only later this week.

Even as her party continues their show of strength and her legal team battles to have her out, reports from inside the prison reveal that the lady is very co-operative.

While she has been given no extra privileges apart from a separate cell with a TV and no uniform, her food is being tested for safety before it is served, according to a senior official, reported Deccan Chronicle earlier.

“Her food requirement is very simple…her security requires that it should be tasted before being served to her,” a top government officer was quoted as saying on condition of anonymity.
